I received it as a matched set from some graphic designer
elsewhere in the company, who updates our image every
year (or whim).

If my blood sugar hadn't been so low, the obvious solution
is to just rename the directory to something generic that
doesn't look (to Windows) like it belongs with the htm file,
fix the links to the renamed directory, and never have the
silly problem again.

I guess the original designer named them alike so that we
writers would keep them together, and I'd just been
following suit.

Obviously, I need to eat more chocolate at work, to keep
my brain from getting so fuzzy.

Also obviously, it's time I built a web site, just to get
accustomed to those tools... though gawd knows I have no
desire to maintain a site, but no motivation to build
one unless it's for real. :-)

Thanks.
